v invented new and useful Improvements in Chur-ns; and ,.l..do;herebyYdeclarethat,the.,folloningis .aifull and complete description of theconstruction and operationofthe same, reference being had to theaccompanying drawingamaking part ,of this specification, in which-Figurel is a lvertical section,

Figure 2 is a transverse section, and v Figure 3 is a perspective viewof the dasher.

l `Like letters refer to like parts.

The body of the churn is constructed in the usual form, of any suitablematerial. I B B show the upright parts of the frame; E is .thecross-head, to hold the upper end of the dasher-shaft A; Si is thepinion; I is the driving-wheel, and J its sha The frame is made of Wood;the cross-head E is framed into the standard B B, and the frame issecured to. the churn-body by means of loops or sockets, F, which arefastened to the churn-body. f

On the inside of the churn, and on its opposite sides, I place fourpieces, a. a a c, which I call breakers, made in the form of the letterv, as shown, and which are rmly secured to the' churn, and reachingabout half 'way up its sides from 'the' bottom. In the, centre of the.bottom of the churn is a pin, c', upon which the dasher stands androtates.

` Fig. 3 is a perspective view ofthe dasher. The lower end of. the shaftA is made in the form of a. frustum of a pyramid, on two opposite sidesof`whch are attached two wings, A A', which stand obliquely toward theshaft y Y.

In rotating the dasher in che direction of the arrow in fig. 2, by meansof the gear-wheels H and rI, the cream is thrown against the breakers,and the butter thus separated.

Wheurotated in the opposite direction, the butter is gathered orcollected into balls or masses.

In order to remove thedasher from the churn, the pins that hold thehorizontal shaft in place are taken out, and the shaft displaced. Thedasher-shaft, with the dasher, is then removed, and, if desired, theframe B B E can be displaced also.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,is-

1. The dasher AA', when constructed vsubstantially in the manner and forthe purpose set forth.

2. The dasher, when constructed asl described, in combination with thebreakers a a c a, as specified.

3. The combinationoi the body, the fame B, the dasher A A', and thebreakers c c a a, as and for the purposes set forth.
